caddytls: Make on-demand 'ask' permission modular (#6055)

* caddytls: Make on-demand 'ask' permission modular

This makes the 'ask' endpoint a module, which means that developers can
write custom plugins for granting permission for on-demand certificates.

Kicking myself that we didn't do it this way at the beginning, but who coulda known...

* Lint

* Error on conflicting config

* Fix bad merge
